Hi Darren,
I see from an earlier post that you now have the S13 schedules. Can you confirm what aircraft will be operating LGW - Antalya - LGW, Tom346/7 16.25 on the 30th July 2013?
Thanks

Thanks Dazbo do you know how many of each aircraft easch base will have ? Its interesting to see that EMA is now a 737-800 only base for short/Mid haul with the 767s and 787 when ready for the long haul
Nearly 2 weeks ago flew out on TOM474 NCL to sharm. And really liked the fact that row 9 has been removed greatly improving legroom in the front section. Super when the flight is nearly 6 hours. Heading home on Monday on Tom 475. Will it be the same does anyone knowplease?
Ukbill,
It should be the same configuration for your return flight. These are now used on the longer mid haul sectors.

Thanks Darren. It really makes the flight better.
Thankyou Darren
Hi there can anyone help with which aircraft DSA-AYT Tom498/9. Also could anyone advise if any seats better than others not including extra leg room seats of course!
Many thanks
Many thanks

DSA-AYT-DSA (TOM388/9) are operated by Boeing 737-800. You'll find extensive aircraft information on our What Aircraft? guide (link below) including aircraft and cabin photos as well as a seat plan. Seating is personal preference. All seats offer the same seat pitch and facilities, other than extra legroom, so it's whatever you prefer really.The only ones I'd say avoid are the last few rows where the toilets are to avoid the disturbance.

Information I'm hearing is Thomson Airways have been given a delivery schedule for the Boeing 787-8 as June 2013, no specific date as yet but I'm sure they have one internally. This will mean they should be entering short haul service sometime towards the middle or end of June, July and early August, then entering long haul service sometime mid to end of August. I'll update further as I get it, but good news at last.

Can I ask, Thomson as we know decided to get rid of IFE on short and medium hall flights. What are the cost savings to them. The reason I ask, I have been doing a bit of research, and Thomson are (if you buy flight only) still more expensive then the low cost carriers, but offer nothing more, or offer less if you take the seat pitch into consideration. What is the incentive to fly with them. A 4 hour+ flight to the likes of Cyprus or Canaries is quite a long flight, especially with kids and also seems to be more expensive with Thomson, and there are no in flight meals or any sort of Entertainment. Are Thomson making considerable enough savings whilst their customer satisfaction scores seem to be dropping, or is this the way all operators are going to go. Look at some of the recent Thomson reviews on various sites, they really are quite poor..
Hi Darren

baldyman26,
The cost savings of not providing IFE are significant, especially when you consider surveys suggested it wasn't being watched and many said they didn't want it. It's pretty expensive paying the rights to show films plus the technology used in some of the aircraft, particularly the 757's is pretty old now making it difficult getting the films in the format needed (Hi8 tapes), then there's the maintenance of the systsms. Pricing is another matter! Prices aren't fixed, they are subject to change based on economic forces just like the low cost carriers. While the product offered doesn't really differ these days, airlines will try and get the most they can for each seat. While people pay the prices, costs will stay where they are.
